Does your jewelry come with packaging?

Yes, our jewelry pieces come in our special box with each piece packed in its own pouch with cleaning fabric and care card. We may pack orders of more than one (1) item together in one of our bigger boxes. Please let us know if you would like them packed separately.

SHIPPING

What are your shipping rates?

All standard Domestic (within the Philippines) orders are shipped via LBC and are FREE of charge.

All standard International orders are shipped via DHL Express. International shipping fees will be calculated at checkout, with fees dependent on the shipping address.

How fast do you ship?

We do our best to ship your orders as quickly as possible. Please allow us 1-3 business days to process your order. If your order is a rush, please email us at sverallo1@gmail.com so we can work on expediting it.

When will my order arrive?

Our orders usually leave our office 1-3 business days upon order confirmation. Once your order has been shipped, please expect Domestic orders (within the Philippines) to arrive in 1-3 business days. International orders usually arrive within 3-7 business days from the original shipping date, depending on the country of destination.

If after a reasonable amount of time you order still hasn't arrived, please contact us at sverallo1@gmail.com and we can follow up with the shipping courier.

My order never arrived. What can I do?

We are not responsible for packages that are lost or damaged in transit. We strongly urge you to select a secure shipping location. If you need to make a change to your shipping address, email us at sverallo1@gmail.com as soon as possible. We can amend the address as long as the package has not left our facility, but unfortunately, we cannot reroute a package once it has shipped. In the event your package does go missing, please notify us immediately so that we can file a claim with the shipping carrier on your behalf.

Do I need to pay import or duty taxes?

International shipments may be subject to additional customs, duties, and fees, all of which are the full responsibility of the recipient. These fees may vary from country to country and shipping delays may occur due to customs. Please note that duties and taxes are not included in the total at checkout.

If the customer declines tax and tariff payment and the package is forfeited at customs, the customer will be responsible for the cost of return shipping to the Philippines. Please note that in some countries, when a package is forfeited at customs due to non-payment of taxes, tariffs and duties, it will be seized and not returned to Susanne Verallo. In this case, the customer will not receive any refund.

What can I do if my item arrived damaged?

Please contact us immediately within 24 hours of receiving your order at sverallo1@gmail.com.

Can I return a Susanne Verallo item bought from another store or stockist?

If you've purchased one of our items from another stockist, please get in touch with them for any problems with your order.

CARE

What are your jewelry pieces made from?

Each of our pieces is completely crafted by hand by master artisans in the Philippines using real seashells, therefore any variation in size, shape, or color is natural and adds character to the piece, making each one completely unique.

Our pieces are handcrafted from brass and plated in 24kt gold, with the highest quality finishing. Everything is nickel and lead-free. Our earring posts and backings are stainless steel.

How do I care for my Susanne Verallo jewelry?

Please handle your jewelry with care. Our pieces are crafted from 24kt gold plated brass and may naturally wear over time. Depending on personal pH levels of skin, some people may experience jewelry wear more quickly than others. To reduce the effect of wear, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth after each use and store in the pouch provided or in a ziplock bag, away from direct heat and sunlight.

Keep away from abrasive surfaces, liquids, and moisture. Avoid exposure to makeup and perfume. Please do not swim/bathe/shower/exercise/sleep with your jewelry and avoid long exposure to humidity. Avoid dropping your jewelry as the impact may weaken or break the piece. Do NOT use liquids or chemicals to clean.

Susanne Verallo will not be held responsible for any damages that may occur by foregoing the above recommendations.
